Well my wipers are in need of some serious replacing and read that there are some PIAA wipers that are super quiet.

Anyone know where PIAA wipers are sold in Calgary or can recommend a good substitute?

We were just talking about this at work, nothing ever seems to work as well as OEM's when it comes to wipers.

OEM... plus you can replace them 4 or 5 times for the same cost as the reflex ones.

These wipers are OG rebranded Valeo Ultimate wipers for super cheap. CT Reflex wipers are a knockoff of these. PIAA wipers are fine, but too expensive. OEM can be good, but it really depends on the manufacturer. I hear Honda OEM is good and so is Toyota, but Subaru OEM wipers suck.

I use Bosch Microedge. Usually you can find them for $11 to $12 each on sale.

:werd: MUCH better than reflex, and less than half the price.

Way thicker, stronger, and not cheap looking.
